A career still climbing — Hirato is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
1.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 37.2, Hirato carries the 26th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J1 League (top 40%). Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.61 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 29, Hirato sits on 7.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Hirato's projected Rating — 37.2 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
